Plain Facts. •: About seven years ago Stewart Dawson and Co., Liverpool, originated' and introduced a new system of business in the English Watch Trade viz : - Instead of continuing to sell their watches to retail dealers on credit with long payment, they resolv ed to go direct to the public themselves and sell their manufacture for cash — a system which has received a world-wide patronage never before equalled it the history of watch making. S. D. & Co. have now fully placed this advantageous system of business within the reach of the Colonial public, and here remind all that, by dealing direct with them, the actual Manufacturers, every customer saves three large profits — the London Wholesale Dealers' Profit, the Colonial Wholesale Dealers Profit and the Colonial Eetail Dealers Profitin all _■ -' ' .
